YCRE Quarterly Meeting

I recently attend the YCRE Quarterly meeting where Charles Roberts presented the current trends in the Denver Real Estate market.  I found both of the charts below interesting and encouraging:

Inventory Levels are still low - the current levels for 2014 are labeled in the bottom right corner - still about 1/3 of what they should be for a "healthy" market.


Average home price in Denver continues to increase - the values for 2014 are plotted in pen ...


Note:  If you would like a complete copy of the YCRE Real Estate Trends booklet 
for the 2nd quarter, please let me know ...

A couple additional comments from the owners of YCRE:
  • Although the local media is talking about the possibilities of a new "housing bubble", they feel strongly that this is not possible with such a low inventory of homes for sale.
  • The price increase of single family homes over the past 12 months has been about 7% - just a little higher than the average over the past 45 years of 6% increase.
  • Investors continue to purchase 25-30% of all real estate transactions in Denver ... this number has remained constant over the past several years.
  • Both owners believe that there is most likely a strong market in Denver for atleast the next 2 years ... however, they are not willing to predict past that!
